of the Enemy of my Soul.
In the Year 1724 there was a great Awakening among
the Children in Moravia. I heard that we must get a 
new Heart if we will be saved, and that God alone was able 
to give it. This occasioned new [?] in me, seeing
that I was [?] herein and I was much troubled. I at the
same Time looked out for some Companions, to whom I would
discover this my Concern, and our Saviour gave me eight who

Bushes, where we were alone, and went and prayed for the new Heart.
A Hope was also kindled within me, that I should become 
a Partaker of it, tho I felt myself very unworthy.
